TearScience cuts price in half for LipiFlow

TearScience announced a 50% reduction in price of the single-use activators for the LipiFlow treatment platform for meibomian gland dysfunction.

The company is striving to make LipiFlow and LipiView technologies more accessible to eye care professionals, according to a press release.

The goal is to encourage professionals to evaluate and intervene earlier in meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), the company said.

TearScience reported that the change relates to the economies of scale necessary to reorganize and expand its supply and manufacturing capabilities

“By enacting these changes, we are answering the market’s demand for greater accessibility to our core technologies so that eye care professionals can accurately evaluate MGD early in its course and intervene in this progressive disease,” TearScience CEO Joseph Boorady, OD, said in the release.
